Transfer Day

Today was action packed! We transferred from Northside Hospital to Egleston. Here are a couple pictures of Thomas and his team leaving Northside.
Getting ready to go!


Thomas's massive ride! This thing is basically a NICU on wheels.

Here is getting into the ambulance.

Moving on Up

We spoke with the cardiologist today, and they are planning to transfer Thomas to Egleston tomorrow morning! Once there they will continue to evaluate him, and he will probably have surgery early next week.
We don't know exactly when the transfer will take place because we are at the mercy of the Transport Team.  Adults are transferred in regular ambulances.....Thomas will be transferred in the enormous NICU-on-wheels type ambulance that they use for babies :)
I am excited because I will be discharged tomorrow too! We have already told our nurse the plan so that the OB can get us out of here first thing in the morning. We will be moving into the Ronald McDonald house at Egleston and will stay there while Thomas is in the hospital.  Several people have asked for our address here in Atlanta, so I will be able to let you know after tomorrow!

Thanks for your continued prayers and support.  Please continue to pray for Thomas, his doctors and nurses,  and for us as we head into this next step of the journey.   We are excited to be moving forward but very nervous as well.

Deut 31:8
"The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged."

Love,
Melissa & TJ (& Thomas!)
